Happy Texas Independence Day everyone.

181 years ago today Texas declared itself independent from Mexico and became its own nation.



Have a great day ya'll, and remember the Alamo!

 :) :D ;D

Texas our Texas, all hail the mighty state!

Somebody mentioned my idea of putting the Texas flag in the "Countries" list. Maybe I ought to give that idea some extra consideration today. ;)

On a somewhat more serious note, our youth went to visit Austin and San Antonio last October. It was interesting getting to see things like the Texas Senate floor and the Alamo.

I'd be behind it.  ;D

That's neat, the Alamo isn't much to look at, but it really is a cool bit of Texan history.

Cavern Hole is for all discussion not related to Redwall, and because I like Texas and wanted to share that it was Texas Independence Day.

"Etymology. The name Texas, based on the Caddo word tejas meaning "friends" or "allies", was applied by the Spanish to the Caddo themselves and to the region of their settlement in East Texas."

America is nothing more than a myth perpetuated by trolls on the internet. Anyone who says they're from America is a bot.

Well, duh. It's still a collection of colonies, mostly British. They have no hope of uniting.
